Question

Why are there so many Spanish places names in Texas today?

Answer 1

There’s so many Spanish places names in Texas today due to Spain owning Texas, and then after Mexico’s war of independence, Mexico owned Texas. Both are Spanish-speaking countries which is why today there is so many Spanish names for places.

Answer 2

Answer:

Most of the places with Spanish-named cities are in this territory (Florida, California, Texas, etc.). Because they were created by Spain. The ones in the west were part of Spanish Mexico, and then after Mexico became independent they were taken by the United States during a war.
